Alfie Kilgour has become the final Bristol Rovers player to sign a new contract with the club.

The 19-year-old follows the likes of Ellis Harrison, James Clarke, Ryan Broom and Rory Gaffney in committing his future to the Sky Bet League One side.

Defender Kilgour, who has spent time on loan at the likes of Mangotsfield United and Cirencester Town over the past few seasons, penned his first pro deal last summer and was handed the 32 squad number.

“First and foremost it’s an absolute privilege to be offered another contract,” said the centre-back. “Being injured, that’s not always the case but it’s onwards and upwards now and I’m looking forward to getting back out there.”

Alfie Kilgour, 19, suffered a serious ACL and hamstring injury last December and underwent surgery.

Kilgour, who is yet to make his senior debut for Darrell Clarke’s side but is highly-rated at BS7, suffered a cruciate ligament injury last campaign while playing and won’t resume training for another few weeks.
